So I've seen a small increase in ammonia. The test isn't completely yellow any longer. It definitely has a green tint to it but it's still less than 0.25ppm. My nitrates are getting close to 10ppm. But now I have a sick fish. He's swimming at a slight angle and has a red, bulging eye. I dont...
Does anyone know what most store-bought decorations are made from? I've tried to research it but I wasn't able to get an answer other than "resin". Well, there's lots of "resins" out there...
That's sort of what I was expecting to hear. I just kept reading about the cycle taking weeks to complete and so I felt skeptical that mine had even started.
Thank you for the info!
I have a 20 gallon long tank and I did a fish-in cycle. I used API Quick Start and started with 4 bloodfin tetra. I checked the water each day for a week and never saw a spike in ammonia. Everything has been zero across the board and now I'm starting to see a slight rise in nitrates. From what I...
I'm going to buy 4 more tetras for my 20L. I have 4 in there now. 3 bloodfin and 1 black neon. The black neon was added to the bag by mistake and I didn't realize until I put them in the tank! So now he's lonely. I'm getting 3 more of his kind and one more bloodfin so I'll have 4 of each.

Thanks for the friendly welcome! My options just expanded since my wife made me a deal. She's giving me space on the entertainment center for a 20 gallon tank if I mount the tv on the wall like she's been asking me to do for weeks haha!
I just learned about these today on the forum! They are...
This post has really helped me out as I'm starting my first 10 gallon tank. I had never heard of celestial pearl danios before but now I want some! What's a comfortable max on these if you plan on having three Glofish danios?
That is way too cool! Where did you get the "tank"? I work in an office and we're not allowed to have aquariums obviously but we are allowed to have small plants. I'd love to do something like this myself.
Hello from Chattanooga, Tn. I'm a complete novice to the hobby. I am currently piecing together my first 10 gallon freshwater tank. Still undecided on what to stock it with or whether or not to go the planted route. I have been doing tons of research the past week and will hopefully be...
